If tanx 512 and x is in the 2nd quadrant find sin2x show me
If tanx= -5/12 and x is in the 2nd quadrant. find sin2x ? show me how to solve ?
A) 10/13
B) 120/169
C) 0
D) -120/169
Solution
x is in second quadrant then sin is positive and cos is nagative,
now,
tanx = -5/12
then sinx = 5/13
cos x = -12/13
sin 2x = 2sinx cosx
sin 2x = 2 * (5/13) * (-12/13) = -120/169
